Dear Hon. Andrea Stewart-Cousins:

Please accept this letter as my official resignation as a member of the NYS Senate. This resignation
is effective on Sunday, December 31, 2017, at 12:00 midnight.

I am herewith also requesting that you please consider keeping my local senate office open and
fully staffed until this vacant position is tilled.

This Senate office serves approximately 50 to 60 constituents daily, therefore, the residents of the
32nd district should not be left without the vital services we have faithfully provided them for the
past 15 years.

Your consideration and approval of this matter will be highly appreciated by this servant, the stall,
and the residents of the 32nd district in the Bronx.

Thank you in advanced.

ERubcn Diaz
Member of the NYS Senate
